Black Sand

[Thedoctor]

Hello,

Just got a new tank and I would love black sand. I want a really fine grain sand but alot of black tropical sands look closer to grit via internet pics.

I know there is fine black sand out there but is that for tropical use or can you only get sand that fine for marine?

Thanks in advance for any and all help.
